CURRENT MISSION

To see the world as children do.

ABOUT ME

I am a life adventurer. I try to say yes to most things. I think the best way to travel is to stay in one place. The best way to learn about a city is to walk everywhere and talk to anyone. In my travels I am always amazed at the generosity and kindness of strangers.

PHILOSOPHY

Live in the now, keep your mind clear, conquer fear.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

During my time living in Prague, I had the great fortune of living with an amazing young couple who delighted in opening their house to travelers. They actually preferred longer stayers, so they could really get to know the people they welcomed into their lives. I learned that spirit of giving from them.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted a fun guy once, he tried to kiss my roommate but bought us a lot of beer. So I took a break for awhile after that one, but I'm ready to try again.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Got stuck in a rock crevasse alone in upstate New York, after forty minutes summoned the strength to climb out.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to sing and jam with you. I just got a ukulele and I plan to bring it with me on my travels. Music is the international language.
